I Know that My Redeemer Lives

From prominence to ash heap, Job needed a strong hand guiding him and a tender heart loving him. Like Job, we are not insulated from life’s tragedies, but neither are we intimidated by them. In the middle of the broken pieces, Job cries out, “I know that my Redeemer lives!” These words mean that we have someone to walk with us through life’s long, dark, winding halls. Granted, there are many things surrounding our hardships that we simply don’t know, but what we DO KNOW is that on this day of resurrection our Redeemer truly lives! No matter what our dark hallway looks like and what our circles are saying, we do not walk alone. And why is that? “He lives, all glory to his name! He lives, my Jesus, still the same. Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives: ‘I know that my Redeemer lives!’”
